Bisexual friend

[BlueEyedLady]

You entirely ignored the part about the fake group called “Landover Baptist Church” which is a fake Christian website created by atheists with the single goal of making Christians look like ignorant bigots. The fake “Landover Baptist Church” is not unlike WBC. That was my point. The WBC also has a method of making their money that is just like how “gay” activist make theirs which is to go out of their way to offend someone, get a reaction, then sue. Can you give some specific examples of the ACLU protecting Christians (mainstream Christians) religious liberty?

You’re kidding right? You really don’t think that the ACLU has ever fought for Christians? Sure, let me help clear up that misconception for you.

Talks about the ACLU defending the rights of a street preacher and explains how and why they have Christian allies.

Any other misconceptions you need help with?

Oh, and the difference between the Landover Baptist site and the WBC is that the Landover Baptist Church is just a spoof site that exists only on the internet. The WBC exists in the physical world, has a small membership that is limited to one family with the exception of one convert, and has a long and documented history.

Because she’s really nice, we share a lot if interests, have a lot in common, and have known each other for a few years? That’s usually why people are friends.

I think you just need to sit down with her and have a frank discussion about this. Ask her what the point is in fixating on extremists. Imho, it will only polarize her.

A really good friend of mine is Bisexual. She knows I’m catholic and where I stand on this. After explaining the Catholic position, she accepted that I disagree with her, since I, in her words “am not a jerk about it”. On one hand I don’t agree with how some people are being treated, but on the other I’m not about to back down on what I believe.

So I guess my question is, how do I respond?

have you and bi friend watch the truth project and then discuss -
start with lesson 1

The Truth Project begins by defining truth as “that which corresponds to reality.” This absolute and eternal truth, at the heart of Jesus’ mission on earth, continues to be the focal point of the Cosmic Battle in our own time.

Perhaps, you are more familiar with the relationship. I am just concerned about the way she is approaching you. You made it clear what your faith teaches. Yet, she seems so determined to change you. Friends don’t always have to agree, but they do need to be respectful of each other. Otherwise, it doesn’t seem very friendly.

I work a lot with young people. We are always trying to encourage them to develop deep friendships with those who will aid them on their journey. Your bi-sexual friend may be nice, but is that enough to be chosen as a friend.

BlueEyedLady,

The links you provided are mostly opinions by liberal ACLU apologists, but I haven’t seen anything in those opinions that proves that the ACLU are on the side of traditional mainstream Christians unless you consider defending the KKK to be defending Christians which I don’t. By the way, I don’t know why anyone would be so proud to defend the ACLU when they defended NAMBLA, an association of pedophiles while siding against Christians who display a cross in public. The ACLU would probably defend a cross in public if it were lit on fire in a KKK ritual.

One is working the atheist agenda to make Christians look bad on the internet, the other helps the atheist agenda to make Christians look bad in the physical world. I don’t see a big difference. By the way, why out of probably around 40,000 Christian denominations is there only one like the WBC who only have a handful of members? And do you honestly believe that they represent Christians as “gay” and atheist activists would like everyone to believe? I think it would be the same as if I said that Jeffrey Dahmer represents the typical homosexual.

Yeah…if actual court cases aren’t enough I think I’ll just bow out of this one. You’re either trolling or your mind is so made up that no evidence will convince you that the ACLU takes cases for any group whose civil liberties are being threatened.

As for the WBC, no, I don’t think that they represent all Christians. In fact, I called them a cult. If you think a lifelong Baptist who was active with his faith slowly lost his mind, got disbarred, and set up a compound where all of his descendents live closed off from the rest of the world (the kids do go to public school, but for obvious reasons no one will be friends with them), as a way to make atheists happy, well once again you’re either trolling or you refuse to read and take in any facts.

Has the ACLU offered to take the side of the many Christian groups who have sued the government over the HHS mandate?

Then you agree that it’s an injustice how Westboro Baptists are being held up by “gay” activists as representing Christians, right?
